Vono/Hola Is being well ndvortlBod nt nny rnto. Nebraska Is her own Hwcot self again having evaded the grasp of Old Horais mid the Frost King. An Ainorloau cotton planter 1ms taken n Job nt 110,000 n your to teach the nub- JoctB of England the art of growing that staple article of comniuroo. If they should require similar iiiHtruotion on growing corn , Nebraska Btnuda ready to supply the dmnund. It nmy bo possible Unit L. B. llnnnii of Fnrgo , N. I ) . , n nephew of Senator Murk Ilniurn , nmy bo ohoHon to repre sent that state in the imtloiml Runnto. If the nephew partakes of any of the oharaotorlHtlcH of IIH ! ilhiHtriouR nuolo it is certain that the legislature of North Dakota conld not nmko n better selection. President Roosevelt has hoard Unit there are -10,000 brnlna in Wyoming and ho Is determined that one or more of them Hlmll bo honored by receiving n bullet from Ills gun. Mississippi boius nro to timid to appeal to his sporting in Btinut and ho haa concluded that the Wyoming animal shall bo given the next opportunity. The coal situation in some" of the cities ia becoming desperate and the people are glvon over to worry and fault ( hiding. The coal barons perhaps have it in their power to give the people plo the worst and greatest distress it is possible to coucolvo of , but it la donbtfnl if , with all the resources ntjlts command , the government would per mit conditions to become serious. A Chicago scientist him induced the IUOQU to como within CO miles of the earth to Imvo its photograph taken and in convinced that the , science of astro nomical photography la yet in its In fancy , hoping to show some remark- nblo results wlthiu the next few years. When ho is able to present photographs of the inhabitants of Mars the people of the earth will begin to got interested. A Rtook company is being formed nt Fremont to place n now paper in n "long felt want" that is alleged to have made its npoonmuco in that city , It is to bo started the first of the year , with n capital stock of $1,000 , and is to bo democratic in politics. It is stated that Will M. Maupln of the Commoner odlce is to furnish editorial inspiration from a safe distance , and that Wnldo Winterstoen will act as sponsor to the infant. It 1ms not yet boon decided whether it will bo dally , trl-woekly or semi-weekly. With Fremont aa nbly represented In the newspaper field as it is at present it is probably safe to figure that someone has an ax to grind who doesn't care how much it may cost to grind it. The Methodist ministers of Chicago Imvo gouo into modern politics far enough to raise n protest against the publication of cartoons of the presi dents of the United States and they nro right. The executive , regardless of the party ho nfllliates with , should bo nbovo the iulluouco of the cartoqn that tends to debase , and the protest might go farther and object to candidates for that high ofilco being represented in grotesque and unseemly forms and positions. When ono party employs the cartoon the other is rather compelled to use them also as a matter of protec tion and the thing to do would bo for nil parties to register their disapproval at the same time. The country and the people would bo just ns well off without them and results could be as readily at tained without their influence , if they have any. It is reported from Tacomn , Wash. , that Governor Savage expects to locate there after his term of ollico has expired pired and ougago in business with his > ons. Reporters Imvo found the gov ernor reticent about the report , and ho Is quoted as having said : TJ'It's nobody's business. I will pay my own way and go where I please. " The governor was impressed with that part of the country while he was there taking part in the ceremony of laying the keel of the battleship Nebraska , was interested in the oriental trade and general business conditions , aud was perhaps impressed by the fact that former governor Loedy of Kansas is accumulating a fortune at Valdes , Alaska. The governor's re marks on tbo subject are characteristic. It was ( he way he did public business frequently and some of the public rather considered that it was their busi ness , especially in the Cartley matter , and they made It enough their business to insist that the next person holding the oillco should pay eomo hoed to their winhos and desires. It may bo nobody'H hiiHlnofiH if Mr. Savage moves to Wash ington , but If true many would bo glad to know it that they might IUUUUUQ ( lie expression of pleasure and satisfaction appropriate to the intelligence.

In most Instances tbo witnesses teatl- fled that tbo alleged offenders were meinberu of tbo miners' union. The lawyers for the miners objected fre quently to the admission of testimony on hearsay and some times objected because of the Irrelevancy of certain other statements.
